Thousands of protesters marched in solidarity to raise awareness of women’s rights and other civil rights they fear could be under threat under Donald Trump’s presidency.
The protest called ‘Women’s March on Washington’ sees women in several other U.S. cities.
In Washington, some protesters wore white and blue sashes that said “dissent is patriotic.” Many carried signs that said “Women Won’t Back Down.” Others bore placards with more colorful references to Trump: “Nasty Women rock” and “Keep your tiny hands off our rights.”
Protesters have also taken to social media to share images and videos of the protests. See some tweets below:
